Dutch archives news roundup - July 2007

News from the Dutch archives.

The provinces Overijssel, Limburg and Zeeland have added new acts to Genlias.

The Utrecht Archive opened a new online database: Stadsbestuurders Utrecht (City administrators Utrecht), with data on all mayors, aldermen and council members from 1813 to 2006. Administrators from before 1813 will follow later.

In April I found online The Utrecht Archive, ironically when I was in a Dutch hotel surfing the Internet. My (Le)Marchand ancestors were in Utrecht/Vianen in the 18th century and I have found several documents relating to them. I now also have for the first time the names of my 6 x great-grandparents! An excellent website, thank you - and more to come. Found some BMDs in Genlias, too. I am looking forward to more results in the future.
